Paint guy is good. Unfortunately he's not looking to do outside orders.

All I did was remove the insert on the oem exhaust tip and installed it into the S2K exhaust tip. Didn't want to modify the exhaust since I drive clients around so I have to keep the car quiet. Just wanted to fill the empty space around the exhaust and the S2K tips were a great alternative.

Catch me at caffeine and octane in February.

It's all good man. I'll check out a few body shops in my area.

Your LS is coming along nicely. Since you drive clients around will you be keeping your factory wheels on?

I actually have some gunmetal Volk TE37s that I'm waiting to get rubbers for. I figured I would wait until Spring/Summer to get them wrapped. They are 19 x 8.5/9.5 +30/+34. All the decals were already removed so I think it will be a nice touch that even my clients won't complain lol. However I have had a couple clients say things about my car haha, one client asked if I bought it from a drug dealer because it was so blacked out.

Yeah I'm excited to install it. It's been about 30 degrees here in Atlanta so it's too cold to install. I'm ready to get these visors and roof spoiler on asap!

I don't have the original tips unfortunately. I gutted them to use the inserts to go into the S2K tips. With them being welded inside I had to hack up the exterior of the old exhaust. Sorry! I'll keep an eye out though... I would just recommend you tell your brother to do the same as me. I got the S2K exhausts for $50 shipped and see them sell for $60-70 shipped at a high. You can also use any of the new SI/Accord exhausts tips as they are pretty much the same as the S2K.

Thanks! Yeah we can definitely get up some time. I bought some Volk TE37s that I'm gonna throw on the car when I get some rubbers. They are conservative and after test fitting they are gonna have a flush, if not close to flush, fitment. They are 19x8.5/9.5 with a +34/+30 offset.
